Read the Reviews:

"A truly imaginative work with strong characters and believable societal laws and legends set in a well-drawn world."

Wendy O’Hanlon, The Noosa Journal

In response to The Jakirian Cycle

"Ellen’s father is dying . . . He names her ruler in his stead, the first of the surprises in Brisbane writer Chris McMahon’s debut novel, The Calvanni. . . Muddying the waters are the plots of numerous forces: the dark sorcerer Raziin, his cruel master Hukum and Cedrin the Calvanni, just for starters."

Jason Nahrung, The Courier Mail

"I literally devoured this addictive story . . . McMahon has written an inspired creation of wondrous proportions, substance and scope that’s enviable of many fantasy writers (both contemporary and classic) . . . the perfect combination for an out-of-this-world read. I found myself reading just another chapter … and another chapter … I was hooked! I highly commend such a skilled author."

"I love fantasy adventures, and the characters, world and plot in this one fulfilled all I hoped for. . . The sword and sorcery, which I love, is top notch. The characters are in-depth and believable. The main protagonists were very likable – I was rooting for them all the way – and the antagonist is multidimensional as well"

In response to The Calvanni

"Exceptional First Novel. The promise of excellent worldbuilding is kept . . . McMahon has learned the lesson of subtly drawing a reader’s attention to the important details and building on them as they are mentioned. The strangeness of the world becomes less strange but more wondrous since the environmental, biological, magical and cultural aspects of the story and seamlessly integrated and operate together."
